git-svn bug with blank commits and author file
 
When trying to import from svn using an author file, git-svn bails out
if it encounters a blank author. The attached patch changes this
behavior and allow using the author file with blanks authors.

I came across this bug while importing from a cvs2svn repo where the
initial revision (1) has a blank author. This doesn't break the behavior
of bailing out when an unknown author is encountered.

NAME
----
git-get-tar-commit-id - Extract commit ID from an archive created using git-archive


SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-get-tar-commit-id' < <tarfile>


DESCRIPTION
-----------
Acts as a filter, extracting the commit ID stored in archives created by
linkgit:git-archive[1].  It reads only the first 1024 bytes of input, thus its
runtime is not influenced by the size of <tarfile> very much.

If no commit ID is found, git-get-tar-commit-id quietly exists with a
return code of 1.  This can happen if <tarfile> had not been created
using git-archive or if the first parameter of git-archive had been
a tree ID instead of a commit ID or tag.
